Year 1 and 2 Weekly Topic Mat
Our SCIENCE topic is Animals, including Humans
How are animals the same and different?
Vocabulary Amphibians They live in the water as babies and on land as they grow older. They have
smooth, slimy skin.
Mammals They are animals that breathe air, grow hair or fur and feed on their mother’s milk as a baby.
Birds All birds have a beak, two legs, feathers and wings.
Fish Fish live and breathe under water. They have scaly skin, fins to help them swim
and they breathe through gills.
Reptiles All reptiles breathe air. They have scales on their skin.
Carnivores Animals that eat only meat.
Herbivores An animal that only eat plants.
Omnivores An animal that feeds on plants and other animals.
5 Finger Facts Animals are grouped into fish, amphibians, reptiles, birds and mammals.
I can name at least one animal from each group, fish, amphibians, reptiles, birds and mammals.
Animals can be grouped based on their diet, a carnivore only eats meat, a herbivore only eats
plants and an omnivore eats both animals and plants.
Animals in the same group have similar features but they are not all the same.
Animals and humans need air, water, food and shelter in order to survive.
This week’s activities
At the end of the week, you will be using your knowledge and skills to write an information
sheet about animals and their needs.
Grouping animals
Observing animals
Omnivore, carnivore or
herbivore?

9:30 – 10:15am – Writing
This week we are working towards writing our own poem about the Great Fire of London using all of
your senses. You will need to complete each activity to help you write your poem including some
actions so that you can perform it.
We are going to be using capital letters for emphasis in our poem but let’s start by recapping on using
capital letters for the beginning of sentences and when using the personal pronoun ‘I’.
On classroom secrets Kids I have set two games to practise capital letters and full srops..
Have a copy of the poem ready for our zoom this morning.

Today we are looking at the ‘ing’ suffix and the rules we need to know when we add ‘ing’ to a verb.
Can you remember what a verb is? What is the Spagercise action for verbs?
Rule
For example:
hit hitting jump jumping
joke joking sail sailing
Sort these words into the grid below:

Today we will look at the ‘est’ suffix and the rules we need to know when we add ‘est’ to adjectives. Can you remember what an adjective is? What is the Spagercise action for adjectives?
Rule – 1. For some words – just add ‘est’
bright = brightest cold = coldest dark = darkest
2. Words ending in ‘e’, drop the ‘e’ and add ‘est.’
brave = bravest cute = cutest safe = safest
3. For words ending in a short vowel and single consonant – double the final consonant and add
‘est’:
big = biggest hot = hottest red = reddest
4. Words ending in a consonant and ‘y’ – drop the ‘y’ and add ‘iest’
early = earliest happy = happiest pretty = prettiest
Complete the activity on the next page, which links with the ‘er’ suffix we looked at last week.

1pm – Science Observing animals
You need to go on an animal hunt! This could be within your house and your garden or while you are out
on your daily exercise.
Whenever you see an animal, draw it on the observing animals sheet below. If you know its name write
it down as well as where you saw the animal. Was it in a tree? Or on the ground? Or flying in the sky?
Use the Animal Groups Key to help you try and work out what group it belongs to.

Today you will be using your senses and imagining what it would have been like to be in there when the
fire burnt through London in 1666.
Here are some pictures to help you feel like you were there.
There is a video clip of some buildings burning in London as part of the 350th Anniversary of The
Great Fire of London. They made some buildings and put them on the River Thames, then they set
them on fire. There is music on the video clip but you can also hear the fire.
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=bA0xwx_1eJ4
Think about what it is like to be at a bonfire or around the fire in Forest School. This should all help
you when completing the senses sheet below.
On the sheet below, you will also find some words and phrases that describe what was happening in
the Fire of London. You can use these and put them with the sense you would be using, for example
tall house you would be seeing so they would need to go next to ‘I can see’.

1pm – Science Omnivore, herbivore or carnivore?
Animals can also be organised based on the diet that they eat. We call these carnivores, herbivores
and omnivores. I am an omnivore because I eat meat and plants, what about you?
Can you look at the pictures of the animals’ diet and decide if they are a carnivore, a herbivore or an omnivore? Cut out the headings and the pictures, then group the pictures under the heading that
describes the animals’ diet. Take a picture once you have organised them all.

Each group of animals (bird, reptiles, mammals, fish and amphibians) have similar features but are
they all the same or do they have some difference?
Do robins and penguins have all the same features? Have a think about what is the same and what is
different and write below?
